451.) President Obama has twice this month referenced the Decleration of Independence. Both times however he did not include the most important word in the passage he loves to reference. “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”. President Obama’s version went a little something like this “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Most will say this isn’t an issue, that the dropping of the phrase creator is nothing to worry about. The truth though is that this is perfect example of the Presidents views of man. He does not believe in the princibles of America that man is born with rights, rights that the government cannot take. He believes that goverment gives rights. He does not understand that WE made government, they serve us. He is a tyrant and this is a classic example of his true beliefs coming through. Apparently he has never read the next line, “That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,” Meaning that governments serve the people, who give them powers. They are limited to what we tell them they can do. The President is incapable of understanding that.

452.) On tuesday President Obama was asked a tough question, he was asked “why are you a christian.” President Obama then answered “I’m a Christian, uh, by choice. Um, you know, my family didn’t — frankly, they weren’t, uh, folks who went to church every — every week. Um, my mother was one of the most spiritual people I knew, but she didn’t, uh, raise me in the church. Uh, so I came to, to, uh, my Christian faith later in life, uh, and it was because the, the, the, precepts of Jesus Christ spoke to me in terms of the kind of life that I would want to lead — being my brother’s and sister’s keeper, treating others as they would treat me” Well that is fine and dandy if he believes these things, but that has nothing to do with Jesus Christ. Jesus did not talk about the golden rule, Jesus did not teach the the concept of my brothers keeper. The golden rule is not part of the teachings of christianity at all. My brothers keeper? That is from the old testiment, the story of cain and able. However it is often misunderstood what that saying means. When Cain says to god “Am I my brothers keeper” that is already after he killed him, he is saying it like “what am I responsible for my brother” He is not saying I am supposed to keep my brother safe, or help him. It is Cain trying to save himself from the fate he brought upon himself. I don’t doubt his faith, I just don’t think he truely understands the faith he claims to fallow. That is unless he is a member of a progressive church that teaches a preverted version of christianity… hm…

453.) President Obama was out campaigning against everything GOP wensday september 29th. He was in the back yard of a Des Moines family. he says that the GOP is being dishonest with the Public about how they intend to pull the nation out of the recession. He went on to create a typical progressive fear campaign. President Obama said, ““We don’t have $700 billion for these cuts. So we’ll have to either borrow — and thereby increase our deficit — or cut the equivalent of 20 percent of our educational budget,” he said. “We cannot solve our big problems without being honest when confronting them. The fact of the matter is, you can’t say you want to invest in our children and then have $700 billion tax cuts for the top two percent” So lets take a look here, he is threating to cut education if the tax cuts are extended. I think he needs to check some facts. 47 democrats where willing to vote for the full tax cut package, that combined with the republicans in the house, would be enough for it to pass. So it is not only republicans fighting for tax cuts for all, it is also his beloved democrat party. President Obama continues to preach ignorance. He continues to fight the one thing that will stimulate the economy, tax cuts for all. Instead he wants to raise taxes on the people who hire the middle class. That is the simple fact. Raising taxes on the rich, hurts the middle class. They will leave for overseas, not hire as many people, shut down all together. But President Obama and the rest of his progressive hoard are to ignorant to see that.

454.) President Obama claims that the country cannot afford the 700 billion dollars that the tax cuts would cost the government. I have already gone into how this preception of things is dead wrong, so I won’t waist my time repeating myself. I would like to point out that He could compromise and agree to cut government spending to pay for the tax cut. We don’t have to barrow more from china, he just chooses to use that as a fear tactic to scare people into fallowing him. Do not fall for the lies. The man is trying to use threats against our children to raise taxes and continue his massive spending.

455.) President Obama said that key to rebuilding our economy is “We need to emphasize reform on finance, education and health care in our country,” he said. “The challenges we face now are real. They’re not going away today or tomorrow. But we are on the right track” He again is wrong. The key to rebuilding our economy is getting the government out of the way and releasing the creative and enginuitive might of the American People. Government is not and has never been the answer. The New Deal failed, Tax cuts and cutting government worked. The difference between the two is clear, cutting taxes you get the 1920’s, raising taxes you get the 1930’s. Yes we need to reform eduaction, and health care needs reformed now more then ever (thanks to you mr. President) but it is far more important to our economy right now to cut government spending and cut taxes and let the country loose. The President however is not able to do such things, as it goes against his communist background.

456.) President Obama has continued his attack against Private America. WE now have a President who is actually going out and actively attacking the free press. “it is part of the tradition that has a very clear, undeniable point of view. It’s a point of view that I disagree with. It’s a point of view that I think is ultimately destructive for the long-term growth of a country that has a vibrant middle class and is competitive in the world” President Obama actually is claiming that Fox News is dangerous to the country. He said that Fox News has a very clear point of view that it is pushing. If it is wrong for Fox News to push an agenda why is it okay for ABC NBC CNN and MSNBC to do the same thing. Probably because they have never once asked a hard question of the President or told the parts of the story the President doesn’t want to people to know. I cannot think of a President who actually went out and tried to discredit a part of the Free Press. Well at least not in this country, dictators and tyrants are the only people who try to silence the press. I think the true reason that President Obama hates fox news is that it is the most watched news network, it is widely economically successfull, and all of this comes from the fact that they are not pawns of the liberal spin machine. Both sides of the story are shown, it is fair and balance. Only someone who doesn’t watch the Network would claim it is just a bunch of right wing haters.

445.) President Obama is continuing his plan to let the upper teir of the Bush Tax Cuts expire. That is a tax increase. I believe last summer President Obama said the last thing they should do in an economic recession is raise taxes because it would suck demand out of the economy. So why is it now that President Obama is suggesting a tax increase on those who will create jobs and actually stimulate the economy. He is determind to do everything in his power to hold this economy back, that is unless his big government somehow defys the history and actually does what he says it will do.

446.) President Obama continues to lable the Republicans as the party of no, saying that they want to move back to policys that led us into this economic recession. He says that Republicans are holding middle class tax cuts hostage so that they can give the wealthy a tax cut. he said, “So let me be clear to [House Republican Leader John] Boehner and everyone else: we should not hold middle class tax cuts hostage any longer,” he said. “We are ready, this week, if they want, to give tax cuts to every American making $250,000 or less. That’s 98, 97 percent of Americans” Let me be clear this is not a tax cut. He is not cutting taxes for anyone, the tax cuts he is talking about have been on the books for a decade it is not a tax cut if they pass, it is a tax raise if they don’t. There are no Obama tax cuts.

447.) President Obama continues to show how little he actually knows about the economy. He chooses to only see part of the story. He said earlier today “It will help our economy because middle-class folks are the folks who are most likely to actually spend this tax relief — for a new computer for the kids or for maybe some home improvement,” that is true, but if we cut taxes for the middle class and raise it on the wealthy, we are raising taxes on the people who employ the middle class. You raise taxes on the wealthy and the economy will get worse, they will move overseas and starve out what jobs are currently in the country. The wealthy create jobs, to hire the middle class. History prooves that the only way to stimulate the economy is to get people working, the easiest and quickest way to do that is to cut taxes for everyone. The New Deal failed, the tax cuts of the early 20’s worked. Yet President Obama wants to continue failed policies and ram them down our throats untill there is nothing left of our once powerful economy. The liberal left needs to wake up and realize that tax cuts for everyone is better then tax cuts for none. They also need to realize that the Rich are largely the only people who actually pay taxes. Check earlier posts I have covered this hundreds of times.

448.) President Obama said that we cannot afford to extend the Bush Tax Cuts on the upper class. He said and I quote “It would mean borrowing $700 billion in order to fund these tax cuts for the very wealthiest Americans.” This proves that he doesn’t get it, this proves that he is a tyrant. He believes that the 700 billion dollars that would not be in the government pockets actually belongs to the government. He thinks that tax cuts are a gift from the government. He doesn’t understand that the goverment of the United States is a slave to its citizens. That 700 billion dollars belongs to those making 250,000 dollars and up, not to the government. Those people give money that they earn, from either supplying a good or a service to consumers, to the government. It is not the governments money, it is the peoples money that we allow the government to have. It is obvious that President Obama does not believe that. How much money does he think the goverment will bring in when his policies kill the economy, when he taxes and regulates the American business man out of business. You can cut taxes for the middle class all you want, but if no one is able to hire them they will have no money to spend. Cut taxes for everyone. President Obama does bring up a good point though America needs money to fight our defict. How do we do we counter act this problem…. Oh i know turn to the past for guidence. The 1930’s had a lot of spending and was a decade of depression, the 20’s was a decade of boom… both started with a huge recession. What was different, the 1920’s started with a big tax cut, and a CUT TO GOVERNMENT! 1930’s started with a tax hike and big government. You can see which one worked and which one didn’t. It was not untill industry was released in the 20’s, and the 30’s that an economic boom resulted. Raising taxes on those who control industry will only hamper it.

449.) President Obama has said that the United States simply can’t afford the Bush tax cuts to continue. The Citizens of the Untied States only allow the government to take 2.2 trillion dollars from their pockets. In 20 months sense President Obama took the oath of office the federal government has barrow 2.8 trillion dollars.President Obama said it would cost us 700 billion dollars if these tax cuts are continued, that is over the next 10 years. Eliminating the tax cuts would not even put a dent into the deficit. Whose economic plan can’t we afford? The truth is President Obama refuses to admit he was wrong, he refuses to Admit that massive government spending is not working, instead he keeps spending and spending thinking if he throws enough worthless paper at the problem he can solve it. He tried spending and it failed, so he tried more spending and it failed, he tried more spending and it failed, each time he expected a different result that is the definition of insanity.

450.) President Barack Obama offical sent money overseas to teach africans how to wash their genitals. How much money? Well I am glad you asked he sent 1 million dollars to africa. 1 million dollars. I bet most of you are going why did I not hear about this, when was this done? You did hear about it, this money was approved when President Obama used 11 pens to sign the porkulus bill into law. Somehow sending a million dollars to Africa will improve our economy.

9 years ago an attack of terror rocked the United States. Nothing I can say can actually document or depict the way I felt, or the way American’s felt. I can only say Remember that day, Remember those who died, and why they died. An act of cold blooded hatred. Remember 911, but remember 912. We as a nation united as one people we came together and cared about one another. We showed the world that America is not a nation of play boys and whimps, but a nation of proud and strong people. Learn from the past to prepare for the future. My prayers go out to the familys who lost someone.

440.) President Obama gave a speech on August 31 and said “no one can doubt President Bush’s support for our troops, or his love of country and commitment to our security.” He could not admit that he was wrong about the surge, the surge in which he said would never bring and end to violence in Iraq, which it did. I would have loved to hear “I stand before you now to say that I was wrong, the surge in Iraq brought stability to the country and it is because of this success that I am no able to bring the troops home and pronounce the work of President Bush as complete and a success.” But… he didn’t he shrugged off President Bush and failed to admit that he was wrong in the past. He had a chance to win respect with much of the nation instead he put himself outside of the issue that he is very muchy involved in, and refused to admit that he was wrong and Bush was right.

441.) The Justice department is sueing Arizona again, well college in Arizona. Several colleges are being sued because they required job applicants to proove that they are citizens. The reason they did this is because it is against the law to hire an illegal immigrants. So the Obama Justice Department is suing a college because they are fallowing the law. Does this make sense to anyone else?

442.) President Obama redecorated the Oval office. Many Presidents have done this, however most Presidents don’t waist 787 billion dollars with the stroke of a pen, most Presidents do not run the deficit to a record high, when times are good it is okay to spend, when times are bad you don’t spend. It again shows that the President is living above the country, rahter then suffering with the rest of us. Oh wait, i am sorry no one is suffering this is the “summer of recovery” I know I am seeing jobs spring up everywhere.

443.) President Barack Obama is trying to find yet more ways to stimulate our economy, I don’t know why thought we already spent 878 billion dollars on a stimulus bill which promised to not only pay off all the labor unions and radical progressives that helped to get our president elected, but also to keep our unemployment numbers under 8%. Well for the majority of President Barack Obama’s term in office the unemployment number has held steady at almost 10%. So clearly we did not spend enough money, So now the President is pushing for a 50 billion dollars more in federal spending to boost the economy. He needs to realize that Federal Spending does nothing for long term economic growth. It failed when FDR tried it, it failed when Hoover Tried it and it is failing when Barack Obama tried it. The only tried and prooven method to long term economic growth is cutting government spending and cutting taxes. Release the power of the American people and get the government out of the way.

444.) President Obama has decided that he is not going to go to the site of the world trade centers to commemerate the 9th anniversary of the attacks of 9/11. I wonder what could posses him to decide to go to the pentagon instead of the site that the world associates with that day? It could be that he has had several vacations in the last month and has become tired of traveling, or it could be that he is trying to save the country money by not flying somewhere, But I am willing to bet that the reason he is not going to the site of the world trade center is all political. President Obama has made himself a massive political storm by involving himself in the world trade center mosque controversy, he had no reason to get involved in the debate he could have shrugged it off and let the local governments and the people of New York haggle out the details. Instead President Obama felt the need to bring the federal goverment into something is was not inteded to deal with. This has created a huge political risk, if he attends the ceremony at the the World Trade Center site he might be backed into a political corner. Why else would the President who is supposed to act as the Head of State of the United States not go to the epicenter of the 911 attacks.
